Clarification on my earlier statement that I was "more intelligent than most" - or something to that effect.
What I really meant was "I can figure things out way better than most". I did not mean to appear as though I might be actually believe I was any good at understanding people at all, at least (a) not in any way that matters any, and/or (b) not when it might be important.
(sigh) That's one of the things I'm learning as a parent (and I suspect, nay - hope, that there'll be many more such lessons).
